Thus, if you share /opt/csw between boot
environments, you're sharing
only the installed bits and not the packaging control
information.
Any changes in packaging you make (such as when
running pkg-get -u)
will _not_ be reflected to the other boot
environments.

It's reasonable to expect problems in one release that aren't there in the next
one, I've been using unstable builds as my primary desktop for a very long time
without much trouble. Usually what I do is use another local machine as a
stable platform use 'screen' to that, or restrict certain

How many platforms have you tested this on? Just yours or others as well? Has
anyone else experienced this issue?

I've actually received a reply back from the engineer resolving the
problem, it seems that a performance tweak introduced in B72 has caused
a problem with the detection of some cd/dvd drives. Hopefully B72 will
either be respun or it will appear in B73.

Every development build has problems though, it is just part of development.
Developers don't care if a past development build had problems, because they're
already onto

Hi,
Hopefully B72 won't be released soon, there is a major bug I came
accross when using it (ONNV from dlc.sun.com) - my cd/dvd drive suddenly
disappears; I've lodged a bug report, but I hope Sun doesn't release it
knowing full well there is a major show stopper.

Would the double testing impair the quality of build 72? I'd figure that b70
is going to get priority, as it's the base of the next SXDE. I've targetted
b72 for a system upgrade, but if there'll be QA issues, I'd skip to 73.
You probably know this, but just to get the terminology straight:

b72 will be the same thing whether they test it or not.
True.
It's not just testing that goes on, but evaluation of the test

One thing I really wish for in the next build is that they fix the issue with
the Ekiga messenger,where it hangs upon setup at the detect network type
screen.I have an iBot firewire camera that's supposed to work in OpenSolaris
Sparc but I'll have no way of knowing until this issue is fixed.

Thanks Gary,I will try this as soon as I can.

I don't know if this is the proper forum to address this question, but
I am under the impression that B72 (the ksh93 project was integrated
in B72, right?) should be here any day now?

Yes. The schedule is here:
Dennis,
I'm in no rush ... snv_70 seems to work wonderfully well .. with a few
glitches here and there .. but geez. What do people want? Perfection?
Yes.
Today and right away and for *free* also? Then users complain about it.

The dock for build 72 closed Monday - that's the deadline for all the
built packages to
However, the build 70b respin is also happening this
week, so they're
building testing two builds at once, and Monday is
a holiday in the
US, so I wouldn't be surprised if it is a few days
later than usual
this time.
Would the double testing impair the quality of build 72? I'd figure that
Under normal schedules they would be testing
the generated images now to make sure they install, and release those
images internally to Sun later today and start the approximately week
long process to get them posted as SXCE for public download next week.
